There are no words. The only team in Major League History to rally from an 0-3 deficit.
And on Mickey Mantle's (& my mother's) Birthday!
The Shrek-like David Ortiz (aka Papi) is the new Mr. October - Winning the ALCS MVP award!!

Ortiz, like so many other games, staked the team to a first inning lead with a 2-run blast. This was extremely important ( Read more... )

In all the years I've been watching baseball, this team is more resilient than any Red Sox team I've ever seen. I know that I watched in '75 & '78, but was too young to remember the games. I've seen re-broadcasts of the games, and I just don't remember the details occurring.

I do however remember every game that took place in 1986. I remember ( Read more... )

Two nights in a row. It's like a dream. Only in this dream you're awake, and you imagine what you want to happen and it does! I'm stunned right now. I'm also not getting much sleep right now. 26 innings of baseball in two nights!

Tonight was incredible. Not to take anything away from yesterday, but I couldn't believe how many players stepped up ( Read more... )

Do they do this kind of stuff on purpose?

It's like a written script; a cliffhanger almost. You're left on the edge of your seat waiting, wanting to know what could happen next. This game was like soo many others in recent Red Sox  playoff history. Faced with elimination, backs against the wall. Somehow, the team does exactly what it needs to do ( Read more... )

. . . things have gone from bad to worse.

SPORTING NEWS:

RedSox - coming into a series heavily favored did something to these "idiots". They stopped hitting. These typically agressive, but patient, hitters lost their patience. In the first two games the team pressed to hit anything that was thrown at them. Instead of waiting for a good pitch to ( Read more... )

I've been having the most bizarre, yet all-too-real dreams lately. I don't understand how this occurs so much more frequently when things aren't going well in my life.

It's funny how I can be so glum, go on stage and forget everything going on in my life, do a performance, then (once the show is over) come right back to where I was before the show ( Read more... )

THEATRE NEWS:

Well, The "Odd Couple" opened last weekend. Audience attendance was decent considering it was labor day weekend. The show itself went alright. No screw ups or big problems. The show runs a bit long, but it's a pretty decent show. It's fun playing "Murray".

I was cast as "Tony" in "You Can't Take It With You" for MADCo. Rehearsals have ( Read more... )

Theatre News:

Okay, so I've accepted a part in a show in North Conway! God, what's the matter with me? (rhetorical question). I actually really like the show and the part is very challenging. The show is "Dinner With Friends". I'm playing "Tom". The drive is not so bad. It's a two hour drive, but it's kinda nice to have that alone time. Plus, I ( Read more... )

The Red Sox:

If you watched tonight's game, I think you will better understand my prediction of the Sox season, from the 21st of July. Actually, the games on the 4th & 6th of August, 1 run losses to Detroit & Tampa Bay, are more indicative of why the Sox have not improved their team enough to make the post-season. Last night's game was merely an ( Read more... )

Red Sox News

I sincerely hope this weekend served as a turning point for the Red Sox season. This team needs to win bunches of games together, and play like every game is a must-win. Win-loss-win-loss is not going to equate to a post season appearance. The Sox added yet another 'unwanted' mid-reliever to their staff, Terry Adams - from Toronto. He ( Read more... )
